The Firm

Somewhere Mama's weeping for her blue-eyed boy.She's holding little white shoes and that little broken toy.And he's following a star,the same one three men followed from the East.But I hear sometimes Satan comes as a man of peace. - Bob DylanEverywhere you look, people are talking Scientology. You'd almost think they'd never heard of Xenu before. And you know what? They probably hadn't. And to know another thing, many of them, even rank and file Scientologists, still haven't.

Certainly Scientology's creed says nothing of the meat of L Ron Hubbard's space opera. Typical of occult orders, it shows an exoteric face to the general public and lower initiates, and reserves esoteric teachings for its inner circle. Its supposed creed is nothing but mealy words of "equality" and "inalienable rights" to such things as freedom of thought and "sanity." Who could argue with that? Well, maybe L Ron Hubbard for one, who said a lot of other things, like "If you really want to enslave people, tell them that you're going to give them total freedom," and whose secret creed has driven higher inititates out of their skulls. Reportedly Tom Cruise, and reputedly only temporarily, counted among that number:

Tom Cruise became psychotic during a secret Scientology initiation in which one is told that rather than being one person, one is composed of thousands of aliens from all over the universe fighting for control of your body. After completing this initiation, known as OT III, Tom appeared sickly with black circles under his eyes and pasty skin. He said he wanted to be away from Scientology for good. He just wanted to go back to Hollywood and his home and be left alone by Scientology. This would not happen; David Miscavige ordered Cruise could not be let go. Scientology worked on Cruise day and night until he finally returned to Scientology.

Miscavige is the Black Pope of Scientology, Chairman of the Board of the "Religious Technology Center," and so heads the organization which "holds the ultimate ecclesiastical authority regarding the standard and pure application of L. Ron Hubbard’s religious technologies."

Here's Cruise snapping a crisp salute to Miscavige at a meeting of the International Association of Scientologists:

Besides suggesting just how impossibly short Miscavige must be, the photograph also demonstrates something of the church's bizarre militarism, which is on prominent display in its naval cadet-like "Sea Org" and the church's intelligence wing, the Office of Special Affairs. Bob Minton, Scientology's "Enemy Number One," describes the Sea Org as "totalitarian" and the OSA as "paramilitary organized Mafia" in possession of "rocket launchers, bazookas, countless other weapons," led by a "management that seeks "world domination."

A portion of the OSA's mandate is described in this policy letter of Hubbard's, where he set forth "the vital targets on which we must invest most of our time":

T1. Depopularizing the enemy to a point of total obliteration.

T2. Taking over the control or allegiance of the heads or proprietors of all news media.

T3. Taking over the control or allegiance of key political figures.

T4. Taking over the control or allegiance of those who monitor international finance and shifting them to a less precarious finance standard.It's fascinating to consider that Hubbard's pastiche of science fiction and Crowleyania, which can count the berserkers of Manson's Family and the Process Church as its stepchildren, can now contend for Middle American respectability just as has Mormonism, which itself was the creature of a ceremonial magician. And as Mormons, who enjoy a disproportionate representation" in the US intelligence community, Scientologists have formed a peculiar cadre of para-military intelligence.

Curiously, there was "disproportionate representation" of Scientologists in the CIA's remote viewing program. The NSA's Major Hal Puthoff was an "Operating Thetan, Level III" when he took on the the program at Stanford Research Institute in 1972, where he remained until 1985. Puthoff's senior colleague was Ingo Swann, who himself had reached OT VII, then the highest initiatory level of Scientology. (That is, before Hubbard felt assured enough to fulfill his longtime fantasy and introduce OTVIII, the gist of which is Surprise - I'm the Antichrist!) Swann, in fact, was a founder of the Scientology Center in Los Angeles. Pat Price, "widely considered to be the best of the remote viewers," was OT IV.

Alex Constantine writes in Virtual Government:

When Swann joined SRI, he stated openly that fourteen "Clears" participated in the experiments, "more than I would suspect."... The projects at SRI were augmented by a parapsychology team at Fort Meade in Maryland under INSCOM and the NSA. Military intelligence personnel were recruited, including Major Ed Dames, the Psi-Tech founder. General Stubblebine ran the project and broadened it to include tarot and the channeling of "spirits."

Well, perhaps the representation is not so disproportionate after all. According to doctrine, a "clear" Scientologist, free of the infestation of thousands of "body thetans," is alleged to have godlike mastery of the material world, including an ability to operate free of the body. A handy talent for a remote viewer, that.

Hubbard, of course, was with Naval Intelligence at the time he was conjuring with Jack Parsons in the "Babalon Working." Scientology would have it that he was operating undercover, to bust up a black magic ring. What remains hidden in plain sight is not only Scientology's occult legacy, but that of US military intelligence.

Jeez, these guys too? I thought it was a made-up cult for money, mostly harmless. Hubbard is a real nutcase!

There must be something about this cult-totalitarian mentality that draws the people into vying for power. The endgame stage of religion always struck me as being "destroy all others". Are the peaceful religious schools of thought losing ground to the wackos? Has it always been this way? I hope it only SEEMS like it's getting worse.

I grew up in the SF Bay Area in the 80's. I met a few practising occultists (perhaps outright Satanists, I don't know) who worked, believe it or not, at SRI, located in Menlo Park on Middlefield Road, . It's a huge, sprawling, complex of laboratories and offices dedicated to all types of high-level research. At that time in the eighties, further south down Middlefield Road in Palo Alto was the Palo Alto Scientology Mission, and a little further south on Middlefield was the Feshbach brothers (of Scientology fame) hedge fund offices.

Anyway, the people I met who worked at SRI, who I believe were the low-level type practitioners, held meetings with others unknown up in the redwood forests west of Stanford University. They would hint at what type of rituals occurred, butchering deer, black robes, etc., but I didn't know to ask the right questions at the time.

I was new to Clearwater, FL and on my home from Army Reserve duty when I popped into the 7-11. A gang of scuzzy, uniformed youth were loitering in the parking lot, and I laid into them pretty harshly for failing to render appropriate military courtesy to an officer. The clerk of the store nearly wet himself with laughter as he informed me that these were not sailors but Scientologists from the Fleet HQ in downtown Clearwater. The Fleet owned almost the whole downtown, and the adherents all dressed in naval-looking uniforms. The lower ranks lived in a church owned building near my neighborhood. I never did get a salute.

Wow! Having read "The Field" by Lynn McTaggart, I am grateful for this new information. You see, in The Field, Puthoff (presented only as a Stanford physicist), Swann and Price (as random psychics) just happened to connect with each other to conduct rv experiments. No link to Scientology was admitted.

And of course, the highly classified rv experiments just happened to be inexplicably publicly domained.

"Makes me think there may be something valuable in the practice of Scientology."

Is this what to make of it? That if all these notable rv experiments were run by scientologists, and that if classified work is suddenly out there for the public, that the rv work itself was actually a fraudulent psyop in the service of promoting scientology!

"Hubbard just wanted to form a religion so he could avoid taxes and get laid. Nothing really wrong with that in my book.

However, it was just taken over by rather sinister people. Religion always draws those types. Always has."

Hear, hear.

Any time someone comes up with a good idea that can truly benefit mankind, as Hubbard did, the energy vampires suck in as close as they can get to keep Mankind from getting any of those good vibes. Jesus is a good example. I'm not going to go out and become a Scientologist, though; anyway, many of the best techniques are not unique to that group, but are available to any thinking and feeling soul.

I am nearly finished with the brand-new book by Peter Moon, The Montauk Book of the Dead. It goes deeply into this very subject, and is enlightening. And yes, he is the co-author with Preston Nichols of some mind-boggling books about the Montauk and other projects.

Without wanting to align myself to any particular brand of wackiness be it Scientological or Rigourlogical I point out in the interests of fairness that Scientology does appear to reject the OT VIII documents as forgeries.

Heres the link on the same sitehttp://www.xs4all.nl/~kspaink/fishman/kobrin-f.txt

Just noticed that on ebay someone is selling this:CIA remote viewing course - 2 CD's and book NLP. Original cost listed as $250.00. Only 5 days and 11 hours left and after 16 bidders the price is at $100.00.

Recently, the authenticity of OT VIII has indeed been confirmed in court.

During the hearings about the question whether or not confiscating Lerma's computer had been justified, Kendrick Moxon was ordered to identify the files that were an infringement of RTC's copyrights. Moxon himself is one of Scientology's lawyers and is an advanced member, who is apparently considered able by RTC to judge the authenticity of the higher material. One of the floppy disks that Moxon labelled as an infringement, only contained one file: OT VIII. Cooley, the lawyer representing RTC in the case, objected against this and stated once more that OT VIII is a forgery; but he wasn't appointed by the court to judge in that matter - Moxon was.

In case anyone wonders how Cruise came into Scientology, a recent Reader's Digest (August, I think) has an interview with him. He talks about his "dyslexia" and mentions how the "basic scientology tools" helped him overcome his problems with reading.

One theory is that this was part of a disinformation campaign to persuade the soviets to spend their technology money on a false path - psychic phenomena.

The US spent a relatively few bucks with these fake campaigns and the Soviets spent big bucks in the belief that they are NOT fake but the real thing.

All part of the effort to grind the Evil Empire down economically.

But for the disinformation campaign to work in this case then one might have to expand the theory to include Scientology itself as part of it.

But this takes us back to the fourties when Hubbard (Naval Intelligence?) was working with remnants of Crowleys comrades.

Dianetics (Scientologies predecessor) and the book that introduced it to the US seems to have sprung up out of nowhere and gained tremendous support within a year or so. Who was providing the money and materiel support for this? It would have taken more than just Hubbard. This publicity and organizational campaign has the stink of the "Company" and its predecessor the OSS.

So - did Scientology have the true and righteous "Tech" or not? The answer to that question will heavily influence our theories.

You see - OT VIII and etc. stands for "Operating Thetan ...'. An "Operating Thetan" is a spirit that can travel outside the body and, among other things, do "Remote Viewing".

Could they do it - or not? Could they do it consistently - or not?

Many have left Scientology because they were promised the capabilities but never achieved it nor knew anyone in the group that could ...

hmmm, how to put this--see, "remote viewing" has never worked, not one time, not anywhere. it's...what's the word for this, i can never remember, oh, right, it's total fucking bullshit. scientology is evil, sure, but mostly it's just embarrassingly stupid. its adherents are forced to justify its absurdity, but as anyone who has seen south park's brilliant take on mormonism will know, absurd foundation stories are the very manna from heaven (literally) of all religion.

Scn. is layers upon layers, some layers good, some dubious, some.....well it runs the gamut. Swann, when he did he RV work, was NOT involved in the CofS. Many members left in l982, after a memorable "night of the generals" in San Francisco. Many who are trained etc. have broken off contact and gone off on their own. Many are now deceased. Many of the original group who departed in '82 have since died.... or are impaired.Swann was a talented psychic before Scn. Also an artist, painter, writer etc. There are many stories out there about Scn., many containing pieces of what is true, but it's hard to get the comprehensive picture. But the "occult" (hidden) aspect was always present from the very beginning. The script follows the mythological truth that nemesis follows hubris. If Hubbard, Miscavage, and the celeb. devotees like Cruse share any attribute, it is incredible Hubris.When human beings attempt to become, and claim to be God, disaster follows.

"hmmm, how to put this--see, "remote viewing" has never worked, not one time, not anywhere."

Have you read the post It's all about them"? As I said there, here's a concept that shifted my paradigm: "It's of no concern whether I think something ridiculous; what matters is, do they? And do they, really?"

The post addresses the Remote Viewing program, its alleged failure and actual success, and why military-intelligence might want to portray success as failure:

In a press release of the Society for Scientific Exploration, Dr Edwin May, the former director for remote-viewing research, asserted "It is estimated that more than 80,000 pages of program documents remain highly classified," and were not examined for the AIR report, which concluded remote viewing "failed to produce the concrete specific information valued in intelligence gathering."

Mandelbaum makes a case for the program's having produced "concrete specific information":

"In the early days of the research, Pat Price correctly obtained code words from a target site, and accurately rendered structural features of numerous targets. That is concrete and specific. In 1981, Joseph McMoneagle accurately determined via remote viewing that General James Dozier was being held in Padua, and described the correct building. That is concrete and specific. In 1979 McMoneagle and Riley accurately described a Chinese nuclear device at Lop Nor, and a test of a bomb that exploded but failed to go nuclear. That is concrete and specific. The aforesaid AIR conclusion about the failure of operational remote viewing is a concret and specific misstatement of fact. Put more simply, it is a lie."

Dr May adds: "There is compelling evidence that the CIA set the outcome with regard to intelligence usage before the evaluation had begun. This was accomplished by limiting the research and operations data sets to exclude positive findings."

A fascinating refutation of Project Stargate by a Lieutenant Colonel appeared in the Winter, 2000 issue of The Intelligencer: Journal of US Intelligence Studies. He calls Stargate an "eyeball roller," and declares remote viewing impossible upon the materialist argument that "the transmission of visual information to the brain simply doesn't occur outside the visual spectrum."

This is fascinating chiefly for who wrote it: Lt Col Michael Aquino, of MindWar and other notorieties, and founder of the Temple of Set. (It can be viewed as a .pdf file here, hosted by the Temple.) The Temples's reading list includes many titles in Enochian magick. A purpose of the Temple is not to promote Elizabethan scholarship, but to do magick. (According to the University of Virginia's curriculum on New Religious Movements, "New members start out as Setian I°, then will advance to Adept II° after being judged to be skilled at black magic. If new affiliates do not become Adept II° within two years after joining, their membership will be discontinued.")

Whatever remote viewing may be, it is not unusually keen eyesight, which seems to be the basis of Aquino's refutation. It may, in fact, be more akin to a magickal working, something up Aquino's alley. In Remote Viewing Secrets, the Pentagon's most successful psychic spy, Joseph McMoneagle, writes that while viewing, he has occasionally encountered "entities" which attempted to impede his vision.

When Aquino left the Church of Satan in 1975, he "performed a Greater Black Magical Working that resulted in (among other things) an inspired document called The Book of Coming Forth By Night." Undoubtedly Aquino would have little regard for a debunking of the genesis of his temple's sacred text based upon a materialist argument concerning the transmission of auditory information to the brain.

Would the CIA intentionally mislead the public regarding the efficacy of its psychic spying? Would the Defense Department prefer to be regarded as wasteful, than successful? Consider for a moment the admission, on September 10, 2001, that the Pentagon has "lost" several trillion dollars over the course of a decade; roughly a third of its budget. Apparently it would prefer to be considered grossly negligent, than to admit to a deep black budget with no oversight.

1977, and I am at home in Palo Alto, watching tv with some buddies, it's the pre-game warmups of the World Series between Dodgers and Yankees.

I "see" (can't describe exactly what I "see", not exactly ON the screen, not exactly floating in the air in front, either, kinda both and neither) a Roman Numeral III. And I know EXACTLY what it means. I turn to my buddies, and tell them "Jackson is going to hit 3 home runs today."

Now, maybe it was just the fact I had watched Reggie since he was a rookie in Oakland, and I could get tickets to the A's games dirt cheap, as attendence was abysmal even during the 3 in a row championships, and he had hit a homer in each two previous W.S. games.

Still. The look on their faces when he hit that second home run, and it was clear he was going to get another at bat...Then he smashed the third over the fence...funny how that makes others uncomfortable when you do that stuff ;And then, maybe 7 or 8 years later, I am again, at home in Fremont, watching a 49er's playoff game (against the Vikings, they killed us that day, ruining a 14-2 season) when it happens again: I "see" an M in capitals, turn to my then-wife and say: "John Madden just got killed in a crash on his bus", while thinking how very strangely ironic Madden would die in a bus crash, because he rides the bus out of fear of flying, when the announcement comes on tv: Billy Martin just died when his truck ran off the road into a tree........

"HOW do you DO that"?? she asked, funny look on her face.

It's OK honey, we did our 20 years, and both survived.

I have many other instances of "coincidences", but these two were witnessed, so I WAS awake.

I'm new to this. I went to the Scientology headquarters in 1993 or 1994 (can't remember) to take a "personality IQ test" It was advertised in the Dramalogue magazine (I was and still am trying to be an actor). Anyway, they really tried to get me in there. They wanted me to go through some kind of "rehab" or cleansing program and wanted a $1000 to do it. I declined and left. They called me every day for a month trying to get me in there. I kept telling them, nicely that I didn't have a grand and if I did I would invest it in acting workshops or on bills. They kept calling until one day I went off on the "alien" on the other end of the line. I cussed him out and told him if they called me again I would come down there with a baseball bat and shotgun and kill every one of you stinking blood sucking fuckwads. Actually I don't remember what my exact words were but it was along those lines. Well, to say the least my life has sucked since then. I live back in Arkansas now and I have other "problems" besides those dickheads (my stepmother was the judge in the Paula Jones vs Bill Clinton lawsuit and put Susan Mcdougal in federal Prison for refusing to answer questions in the Whitewater investigation). I have enemies on both sides of the political fence and I also have those Scientologists and some other movie people that don't like me. Any Advice or encouragement from anyone reading this would be much appreciated. I am having severe acid reflux and I don't think stress or diet is the cause. My 17 year old little sister (half sister) also has acid reflux and I didn't get it until about 5 years ago (I'm 42). My dad (73yo) has had a few strokes and has something a specialist in Houston Tx called Multiple System Atrophy. He basically has everything wrong with him and can't talk or walk and is on his last leg. I had a nervous breakdown right before I moved back to Arkansas in 1996 and I think someone was sneaking something into my water (the tap water in LA is terrible so I would buy gallon jugs and keep it in the fridge). It was probably Scientologists, but could have also been Clinton related (he knows the cartels and they can do some sneaky shit kind of like the CIA). Anyway, I just want all this to stop and I might be making a mistake by posting this, but what the hell, I don't see how it can get any worse. I've always been a liberal but my stepmom and dad are definitely conservatives. I have enemies in both parties. (conservatives from my college days)and I can't understand why Bill's people would hate me so much, except that they are paranoid and vindictive and take things out on family members instead of on Kenneth Starr or my Stepmom because we don't have federal marshalls guarding us.
